Inside ‘The dance begins’ There is no dancing, at least not the dance that fuels all the adventures of the plot. In the new Argentina movie Marina Seresesky Tango it is first of all a state of mind, and this is what justifies the otherwise illogical proposition. Daisy (mercedes moran) 40 years later Carlos (dario grandinetti), her legendary dance partner and love of her life, decides to fake her own death to travel from Spain to her hometown of Argentina.
After that a long trip through the state of Rosario, where ex-lovers will undertake with their best friends (Jorge Marrale) and meanwhile memories, accusations, and secrets will surface. Passing through ruined buildings and imposing landscapes, the film easily tackles the traditions of the following genres: ‘road movie’, romantic comedy and senile drama talking about things like the passage of time and nostalgia the unspeakable things derived from it, and the love for both art and a country left behind – with its passions, nerves, ‘fugazzeta’; and by the way, sometimes quite dark and always displaying a moderate sense of humor. pain and melancholybases its effectiveness on the overwhelming performances of three players, perfectly balanced and synchronized. They dance even though they don’t actually show it.
